At Gwagwalada Pilot Science primary School, voting commenced before 8: 40 a.m. with high turnout of voters in the polling units.
The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has recorded hitch-free accreditation and early voting in many polling units in Gwagwalada, Kwali and Bwari in the FCT area council elections.
The commission recorded the feat due to the functionality of BVA machines.
In the polling units visited, the BVAS machines were all functioning and there was no case of shortage of electoral materials.
The INEC presiding official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorised to speak on the issue, said that technical officials of the commission spent time to service the BVAS ahead of the exercise.
He also said that the FCT INEC Resident Electoral Commissioner warned the members of National Union or Road Transport Workers (NURTW) engaged for the distribution of the materials to ensure timely distribution of the materials.
He added that prompt and timely presence of the security officials also helped to facilitate the work, appealing to the electorate to abide by the rules to ensure smooth conduct of the exercise.
